  1. if i was working in their heat i dont think id be wanting to wear much ppe either
  2. i just find it wraps around branches and locks off on itself easier than a thicker strop. it is nice having the smaller line though. im not so keen on the cinch either.
  3. yes...dont like it much though, nor the cinch that goes with it. i'll be going back to an 11mm once i get a new cam for my positioner
  4. will try get a pic tomorrow. it is a little bulky, but any all in one unit is going to be. at least you dont have to have a cable running down to a seperate recording unit
  5. yes i am mate...just want to get some more exciting jobs to use it on now!
  6. yep, but only one way, straight across the road. but then i wouldnt have been able to play with my new camera!!! i prefer working trees how i worked this one anyway to be fair.....50ft tree down and chipped up before i got down....groundie only had to pick up his saw twice....just a little raking for me to do when i hit the ground:001_smile: all done in the space of an hour
  7. just a short clip of nothing really very exciting at all. mainly just to show the quality of the helmet camera.....more footage to follow, and a full review. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_NEVszolsQ]YouTube - x170.wmv[/ame]
  8. ive been using a 10mm lanyard for a few months now with a cinch, and i dont really like it. i find it wraps itself around limbs and bites onto itself easier than a 11mm upwards lanyard does. thats my only real gripe. for those who like to use a long lanyard(i dont) i guess the annoyance of this would be offset by the space saved using the smaller diameter line
  9. thanks mate.. i bet your missus has her eye on that wooden spoon really doesnt she:sneaky2:
  10. i think it'll change....i dont see how it cant.....things arent sustainable as they are. i do think things will get a whole lot worse before they get better though
  11. i have no desire to emigrate...imo if i cant succeed in this country, why would any other country be any different
  12. you need to set up a seperate account with the childrens trust....this isnt your arbtalk details. all the arbtalk details they require from you is your username, so i can match up your donation with who you are
  13. i guess im just going to hope thats not gonna happen!
  14. in the raffle if you're very lucky:sneaky2:
  15. i had a payment notification come through mate, so it obviously went through ok
  16. everything was chucked over the fence. walnuts are a bit fiddly to climb, and VERY slippy when wet...it was pee'ing down that day
  17. i see from my emails you at least worked out how to buy your tickets
  18. not long enough to warrant the expense to carve it IMO, wouldnt want to put a time on it....and it would probably depend on if it was treated....and its highly unlikely they will be re-treating it regularly either?
  19. nice one tommy. will chestnut last alright?
